“We Have Players!”
The Royals announced their 2013 slogan on Monday: “Come to Play.” Inspiring. SB Nation has a post that collects some of the most ridiculous slogans over the past 15 years. “Come to Play” was also used by the 2004 Rangers, who actually didn’t play so badly. The historically bad ’03 Tigers: “We Come to Play.” Okay then. The 2002 Orioles: “Give us an O!” The 2001 Brewers: “It’s All Here Under One Roof.”
